MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / March 2006recover address book from outlook 2000 to outlook express 6
I am trying to recover my address book from my old PC with outlook 2000, saved in file with name mailboxFP.PAB in order to import it then to my new PC with outlook express 6, but without success. Can anyone help me? I tried to call support from MS but I was surprised to learn that they do not support any longer outlook 2000 (installed on my old PC less than 3 years ago. Thank you in advance  SignatureFrançois They also no longer support PAB's which have been out of use even longer. You must migrate your PAB to a Contacts Folder in Outlook. Only then would you have the ability to export that data to a format OE could import, such as a CSV file.

In other words, you must have Outlook installed and configured properly on a system that also has Outlook Express installed and configured properly.. Then in Outlook Express you'll be able to click File>Import>Other Address Book, select "Microsoft Exchange Personal Address Book", click Next, and Outlook Express should import it.
